Not sure what to say?

God Bless you Susie,
I have just learned of Bob's death. I am blessed to have known him and I will always treasure visiting both of you at PIP. I will smile as I remember Bob's friendliness and kindness to all.

Love, Charlotte Harkness

Having Dance of the Pen, Calligraphy business during the 1970-80's, I was at PIP printing and with Bob and Suzy daily.
Bob not only was a great design mentor for me, but my dear friend. When I was just starting my business, he would refer clients to me. He had a nickname for me, he called me "The Leprechaun", this was because of all the St. Paddy's Day Shenanigans I played on Jim Lynch throughout the years.
Bob and Suzy were a true team, devoted not only to each other, but great...

Dear Suzy: Our hearts and loving thoughts are with you. We have long admired both you and Bob. May you find comfort in remembering him in good health and happy times. With love and deepest condolences, Mikki and Terry Ashe.

It is hard to put into words the level of sadness felt when someone who has impacted so many is no longer among us. Respectful condolences. May he be in God's memory.

I did business with Suzie and Bob when I ran an automotive events company. They were the most delightful couple to work with and totally trustworthy and fun to be around. After all those years of marriage and the adventures they shared, I am sure Suzie will be very sad for a long time. It is very difficult to lose a best friend and spouse. Prayers go out to the entire family as Barbara and I remember with happiness our time around this outstanding couple.
